Abutment crack LMAO you guys always make my day when I watch your videos. I just love to watch the two of you. Keep up the great work and the railroad is coming out beautiful.
Dale, Your a man after my own Heart !!!! Outstanding !!! Love the logging section. This is what I've been waiting to see you build. I too have been working on my indoor portion of my G Scale R&P Lumber Co. Layout. But it has been cold as he-double hockey sticks In my garage here in Colorado. Keep up the good work!!!!!
Hi. I wanted to build a 3 foot gauge HO logging railroad yeas ago but other than bagging some locomotives that’s as far as that went! So this is fun. Not much of a railroad at 30 feet of track but I get to build models and that’s what I love.
Y’all absolutely need a show on tv, you’re informative and entertaining. I find myself laughing while also understanding how to work on my layout. Y’all make it easy to understand without ever getting too complicated or making one feel overwhelmed by the project. Plus the narration of you two makes me smile and I just want to say thank you for the motivation to work on my layout without fear of being overmatched by styrene and fumes from the glue...I’m going to have a “good” time. I’m still laughing at Karen’s rock formation, good times and Happy New Year 🎊
AWESOME GOOD VIDEO VERY INTERESTING AND INFORMATIVE THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR SCREWING AROUND TIME WITH YOUR SUBSCRIBERS ALWAYS APPRECIATED. THANK YOU BOTH AGAIN JIM KAMMERER OF PHILADELPHIA PA 👍😷😷😷
Been watching your videos all November and December while working on my own HO scale railroad with my father. Keep spreading the love and passion for railroads!
Happy New Years to you both. I hope you both have a healthy and safe new year. Can't wait for all your new projects and see your more of your collections and new experiences.
LOL, you two have been inside to long. So funny. Your layout is looking amazing. The back drop is really fantastic and the trees look real, kind of like the mini plants you can buy. Wow I can't wait for you to show us the finished railroad. But don't get it done to fast because I really enjoy each video of the next section you work on. As I've said before you two are amazing and awesome. Stay safe and healthy. Happy New Year! ❣️
Great vidio, like that track liftout section your working on. Going sectionalize my back fence layout so l can work on them in the train shed in the off weather. ...
Yes the upper is so hard to work on my plan has always beet to have 4 sections three of which lift out. The forth will be built at the bench built then mounted more or less permanently. About 30 feet total.
I must say your conversation about the fault line was a real crack up 😅. You are making amazing progress on the railroad. Sending you both my best wishes for a Happy and Healthy New Year.
Happy New Year to you both. Another great show. Your logging railroad looks very cool. I can't wait to see more on this railroad, the truck, your rock work and everything else about it. It is going to look fantastic. Jason Jensen Trains is great. I enjoy his shows and learn something with each new show he posts. Lets all hope that 2021 bring better times for one and all.
The railroad tracks and ties look full size / real. That’s so fun to make models with landscape......Ok you guys, butts and logs ? You two are going to get kicked off RUclips..ha ha .. Thanks Toy people. 🚀🚂
I always like to see what what’s going on in the show I especially like the videos of Steve’s railroad it inspires me to scratch build building and equipment his layout was such an inspiration of how I model in hon30
Jason is a "model structure" artist. His methods are way beyond just building a structure kit. His channel is well worth watching. Your method has to be a bit different, due to size though, which I like quite well. Jason can become a bit tedious, but not you folks. Where your module cracks occur, try putting some waxed paper in the crack and bring your scenic materials right up to it, then remove the waxed paper, leaving a very fine seam. I'm not real sure how it would work, but nothing will stick to the wax on the paper. Using the wax paper is an old trick used by folks that repair fiber glass car and boat bodies to make a very smooth surface. Stay safe, have fun, and continue perfecting the fine art of screwing around. ;-)
Happy New Year Dale and Karyn, fantastic work guys, i think the fumes have you both "cracked up" lol Thank you for another inspiring video, stay safe and have fun Rick B aka Plastic butcher
I have been enjoying your coaling tower build... because I work in a quarry there is something missing on your coal buckets, that being worn edges. All of your edges are sharp and square. In the real world the square edges of the bucket would round over rather quickly and the high wear areas would wear away in time too. An old trick I use to cut extruded polystyrene foam is use a soldering gun with the tip removed and replaced with a bent piano wire in the shape that I wanted to cut. It was the quickest and simplest way to cut control cable passages in foam RC airplanes.
That tool I bought is way to cool. As in not hot enough. The soldering iron May work better. I’d thought about the edges on the buckets. Sort of hard to take a dremel to than. Fear of ruining the whole thing. But I might try some stuff there.
I haven't built the coal mine building yet. I did build a coal tipple over two tracks with operating doors to load 6 hopper cars with 3 on each track. For coal I use granulated coal that a friend got for me. It's used sprayed into boilers to generate steam used to power electricity generators for power companies.
Hey guys...Happy New Year to ya....these are the kinds of vids I love to watch, so fun. BTW, that foam is called EPF, or Extruded Poly-styrene Foam as opposed to Styro-Foam. My 2 cents worth, and keep up the nice work on the railroad.
When I bought my house my first thought was, "Great! Look at all the garage space I can use to store all my assorted crap in." Never occurred to me to park a car there.
Just say no to crack, you two a fun. Will an electric steak knife work to cut the styrene? One you don't use for dinner of course. Your layout is awesome. Happy Better New Year 🎉
Happy New Year Steve's building is looking good. I didn't know that foam rocks was an old thing. I only used plaster casting. Urethane as a weight advantage, but the absorbance of plaster may be an advantage for painting. Urethane glue should also work fine, but it push everything. Al's trees are always wonderful. Are theses even bigger than the one for O scale?
Yea you can get the blue foam as long as you can find a supplier that doesn't do business with or in California . I've tried to get an order of the foam but the floor manager said they can't get it because of being so close to the state line . I may have to go up your way but if I get up there and there's no supply it would be a wasted trip unless there's some really good hobby shops in the area . I like your reference to W S L my child home town of Tuolumne California .
I like this. The logging RR ties look so good. I am almost more excited for the logging RR than for your outdoor project. Can you combine them or is there a scale issue?
All the same scale but the logging line is not connected to the main line 3 feet below. But the trains are totally different too but I will run the logging trains outside just fer fun.
Really nice job on the logging layout. When I first got into no I thought I was gonna a logging layout, I even have bachmann shay..but I found out the it was too expensive for me and the what I have is very slow and detailed but it can't pull even 1 car :( Happy New year!
Yup. Another goose Tuesday. Then a jittery. Then our 5 logging locomotives 🚂. Two shays, a climax, a hylsler and a mallet. Gee... and 30 feet of track.... nuts right?
I have the shortline railroad on my layout about like your logging line, where it's main peice of freight Is lumber, also is the logging line part of your layout or is it a separate railroad?
@@ToyManTelevision woah! You guys are going all out on the interior too! Lol it shouldn’t surprise me because off of your videos Steve goes all out on interiors. Also never heard of a sand house until now. You guys should do a video on them sometime! Anyways great work!!
Jason Jensen is a genius! Check out his channel at Jason Jensen Trains here on YT! Looks like you two are having fun, and I wish you both a very Happy New Year! xo Lisa
If y'all need more coal dust and or coal crumbs even coal I got quite a few pounds of it... Just let me know. I'll never use all of it and if need be I got 3 more 55gal. barrels full of coal I'll have lots of dust from them. I cost me nothing. So I'll happily share.. LOL
Never boring. Always informative and fun.
This is great to see! It seems as if many more people are getting into the hobby of model railroading, I know my grandson and I are
Keep gettin kids involved. Thanks!!
Thanks Toy Man TV. Awesome logging line, Chama sandhouse, Mack truck, and large scale GT350!
It is Sunday. Far to neat. Great job and so realistic. thank you for the entertainment.
Hi. And thanks 🙏
Fantastic really enjoyed your video, thanks for sharing
Looking Great! Nice to see the artistic approach to the larger scale railroad subjects - Boomer. Cheers.
Abutment crack LMAO you guys always make my day when I watch your videos. I just love to watch the two of you. Keep up the great work and the railroad is coming out beautiful.
Hi. Yea we cracked up there. Fun though!!
I was eating supper while watch this. The a-butt- ment comment caused me to spit out my soup. lol. Love your channel!
I absolutely love your channel!!!! I am a train and toy nut and I really enjoy your channel!!
You guys are priceless. Great video.
If you keep this up, you just might inspire me to get started! Please keep it up.
Real happy for you guys and its looking amazing.😍
Great video toyman!!!!!! I'd put this in one of the top 10 videos of you guys laughing
Dale,
Your a man after my own Heart !!!!
Outstanding !!! Love the logging section. This is what I've been waiting to see you build.
I too have been working on my indoor portion of my G Scale R&P Lumber Co. Layout. But it has been cold as he-double hockey sticks

Really cool buildings, layouts and ideas as usual!
Been watching your videos all November and December while working on my own HO scale railroad with my father. Keep spreading the love and passion for railroads!
Enjoy each other. Will be great memories some day. And you will end up with a layout too!!!!
Enjoyed the video, you and Karen cracked me up on this one. Your getting a lot done and all is looking awesome
Thanks for sharing, Cary
Happy new year to you two.
You too! Better new year
back crack pass looks great
Thanks 😊 funny!
Flashback glue Oh Wow the colours men wow thats why so many people got into modelling it's the glue head rush. Happy New Year 🎆🎆🎇🎇🎇🎆🎆🎇🎇🤣🤣🤣
Very nice...All ya' need is Dr. Durant to help make some money on it!...LOL Kidding...Thank you. Your videos and narratives are great.
Thanks!!
That’s beautiful love the logs used as ties.
Making more.
Happy New Year guys, love ya!
Better new year to you!!!! Thanks.
Happy New Years to you both. I hope you both have a healthy and safe new year. Can't wait for all your new projects and see your more of your collections and new experiences.
Hi. Thanks!! More coming. Looking forward to getting back on some trains. But not right away. Dang.
Wow, love the details, plus the wooden ties are so realistic. Can't wait to see the next video.
LOL, you two have been inside to long. So funny. Your layout is looking amazing. The back drop is really fantastic and the trees look real, kind of like the mini plants you can buy.

Hi! Loving this “side track” project. Soon back to the mainline. But first this is going to be FUN.
Great Video! That is a great idea with the pencil, I tried it on some of my HO hoppers and it turn out great.

Hi! Silly right? Well it’s getting done! And it’s getting fun!
To add to my other post The world lost a true artist when Al passed R.I.P. Keep the logs rolling LOL
Love Als trees. Miss him.
You and Karyn find humor in anything. :) Happy, safe and prosperous New Year.
Thanks 😊 stay safe. It’s a better new year. We just have a bit of screwing around to get through before we can get back to really screwing around!
Happy New Year to you both. Another great show. Your logging railroad looks very cool. I can't wait to see more on this railroad, the truck, your rock work and everything else about it.

Looks great! The ties look very good with some of them with the bark. The trees really bring it to life! Happy New Year and take care!
Thanks!!!!

Me too. Used to anyway. Still have the trains. HOn3. Great. Stuff.
Kit Bashing when you can not get what you want. The the puns galore are flowing like the the Colorado River through the Grand Canyon.
It’s fun to just build stuff. Kit? We don’t need no stinking kits! Well unless it’s a great starting point. Anyway stay safe out there! Stay happy!

@@ToyManTelevision then you have to ask yourself, is anyone really going to look that close at it? The logical conclusion is not likely.
I haven't built the coal mine building yet. I did build a coal tipple over two tracks with operating doors to load 6 hopper cars with 3 on each track. For coal I use granulated coal that a friend got for me. It's used sprayed into boilers to generate steam used to power electricity generators for power companies.
Our friends run live coal loads! Load and unload them. Are you using it that way?
Hey guys...Happy New Year to ya....these are the kinds of vids I love to watch, so fun.
BTW, that foam is called EPF, or Extruded Poly-styrene Foam as opposed to Styro-Foam.
My 2 cents worth, and keep up the nice work on the railroad.
I usually call it blue foam board but people look confused. So I’ll try EPF! Makes me sound smart. I hope...
When I bought my house my first thought was, "Great! Look at all the garage space I can use to store all my assorted crap in." Never occurred to me to park a car there.
I like the big garages and roll away layouts. Grand idea!
My garage is a good size for something extra, but it’s too cold to play out there half the year.
wow very nice made me think of karen and frosty at the depo that will 3000 dollars please luv scooter
Hi.
I found when cutting foam, either bead or pink, have your shop vac on close to the cutting area to catch most of the loose stuff. Frank
Yup. In the winter the static makes the mess stick to everything. Mostly me.
Just say no to crack, you two a fun. Will an electric steak knife work to cut the styrene? One you don't use for dinner of course. Your layout is awesome. Happy Better New Year 🎉
😀 the only Tim I could be called a crack head is when I was playing hockey and checked a guy and lost.
Happy New Year 🥳 to y’all...I love the log ties...would like to do that in smaller scale, maybe in HO or pushing it in HOn3!
Tricky but it can be done! I may try it just fer fun!
Happy New Year

Al's trees are always wonderful. Are theses even bigger than the one for O scale?
These two were made for O scale. He made one in 1/20 scale. “Small” at about 30 inches tall. So a small 50 foot tree.
Ground Control We have a Crack Up...

Oddly even with a shay, well 2 shays, we have no grades anywhere. But my old railroad had a long (100 foot) 4% grade. I swore never again.
You two crack me up. Do you guys sale any of the models you hand make?
Steve has many times. But he’s gotten to the point where if someone can come by and make a deal is a no go. Shipping is impossible. So he does that.
Will there be a another narrow gauge convention
Do you have any logging locomotives?? I am a huge fan of logging locomotives!! Also, are you going to have a sawmill or a steam donkey?
Yup. Another goose Tuesday. Then a jittery. Then our 5 logging locomotives 🚂. Two shays, a climax, a hylsler and a mallet. Gee... and 30 feet of track.... nuts right?
